I could have picked a dozen but I had to go for the Godfather - and by that, I mean Godfather 2 - So many great films there though.

3 of my favourite quotes - from GF2, Scarface & Get Carter.
Michael Corleone: If anything in this life is certain, if history has taught us anything, it is that you can kill anyone.
Tony Montana: I never fucked anybody over in my life didn't have it coming to them. You got that? All I have in this world is my balls and my word and I don't break them for no one.
Jack Carter: You're a big man, but you're in bad shape. With me it's a full time job. Now behave yourself.
A book is a version of the world. If you do not like it, ignore it; or offer your own version in return.
Salman Rushdie
You talk to God, you're religious. God talks to you, you're psychotic.
House MD
Who needs a meaning anyway, I'd settle anyday for a very fine view.
Sandy Denny
This is the wrong forum for bluffing :nono:
Paco
Yes, yes. But first I need to show you this venomous fish!
Calilasseia
I think we should do whatever Pawiz wants.
Twoflower
Bella squats momentarily then waddles on still peeing, like a horse
